Rapid Benefits Estimation Tool (RaBET™)

Product Announcement from Avnet Electronics Marketing / Design

Avnet Electronics Marketing Americas, a business region of Avnet, Inc. (NYSE: AVT), announced today the launch of its Rapid Benefit Estimation Tool (RaBET™) for customers looking to reduce their supply chain costs. This free supply chain diagnostic tool enables customers to model the true cost savings they will experience by adding Avnet as their supply chain partner. To find out more, visit Avnet’s website or watch this short video.

Avnet’s RaBET is easy to use. With the input of just a few data points, RaBET can swiftly calculate customer cost benefits and savings by integrating Avnet into their supply chain. With a click of the mouse, users can easily compare their current supply chain expense allocation based on factors including: working capital, purchasing, warehousing, receiving, production, finance, operations and transportation. RaBET then shows how Avnet’s supply chain expertise can dramatically reduce costs in each area. Users can modify each category based on their own internal costing models and drill down on specific activities throughout their material supply process. Depending on the user needs, the tool includes four service solutions ranging from centralized supplier managed inventory programs to on-site consignment, in-plant store and proximity warehousing solutions executed within region or across the globe.

Once customers have generated their comparison reports, summary presentations are available for immediate download. Or, an Avnet supply chain representative can help further tailor a presentation to fit user needs and help them easily communicate Avnet’s value-add to their leadership team.
